Section 616B.448 - Administration of self-insurance by employer or independent contractor1. A self-insured employer shall at all times maintain adequate resources for the administration of his or her program of self-insurance. After the program is established, the adequacy of the resources and standards of performance of the self-insured employer for the program will be evaluated by the Commissioner and the Administrator, or a representative of either of them, on the basis of:(a) The self-insured employer's promptness in filing reports of accidents and occupational disease;(b) The self-insured employer's promptness in making first payments in cases of uncontested claims;(c) The percentage of contested claims;(d) The number of injured employees who are reemployed or rehabilitated; and(e) The delay between the termination of compensation for temporary disabilities and the payment of compensation for permanent partial disabilities.2. A self-insured employer may contract with another person or entity for the administration of his or her program of self-insurance. The acts of a person or entity in carrying out that administration shall be deemed the acts of the self-insured employer for the purposes of NAC 616B.400 to 616B.496, inclusive, and NRS 616D.120, and the self-insured employer is at all times responsible for compliance with chapters 616A to 618, inclusive, of NRS unless specifically excepted by the provisions on self-insurance in those chapters.3. The self-insured employer shall inform the Commissioner and the Administrator, or a representative of either of them, of the names, titles and business addresses of the persons or entity with whom he or she contracts to administer his or her program of self-insurance and the location or locations of the records required to be kept pursuant to NAC 616B.400 to 616B.496, inclusive. Before any change is made in the name, title or address of a person or entity administering the employer's program or any change is made in the location of records, the intended change must be reported in writing to the Commissioner and the Administrator or a designated agent thereof.4. A self-insured employer shall not administer a program of self-insurance from a location outside this State.Nev. Admin. Code § 616B.448
